- nose imports test modules with the same import path (e.g.
``tests.test_mod``) but different file system paths
(e.g. ``tests/test_mode.py`` and ``other/tests/test_mode.py``)
by extending sys.path/import semantics. pytest does not do that
but there is discussion in `issue268 <https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issue/268>`_ for adding some support. Note that
`nose2 choose to avoid this sys.path/import hackery <https://nose2.readthedocs.org/en/latest/differences.html#test-discovery-and-loading>`_.
